Neuromuscular Dentistry - Ensuring Your Smile Has All the Right Moves!

In a properly-aligned bite, the teeth, jaw joints (TMJ) and muscles work together without strain or tension. The biting surfaces of upper and lower teeth fit together neatly while the jaw joints work in unison. When you chew or swallow, the muscles on both sides of the face contract evenly to bring the teeth together and relax during other times.

Bite and TMJ problems often occur when teeth are missing, misaligned or worn. In this situation, the muscles must use extra force and the jaw joints often shift position in order to bring the teeth together. And when you are not chewing, your jaw muscles may not fully relax, even though they feel normal to you.

Over time, this can cause the muscles and joints to become sore, tired, and stiff. A bad bite, together with tense, strained muscles, can lead to headaches, muscle pain, damage to the teeth or jaw joints, clicking and popping, ear ringing and more. It can also shorten the life of crowns, veneers, and other dental restorations through damage or excessive wear.

In treatment planning, Dr. Barbat uses advanced skills to identify problems in the muscles, jaw joints and bite. If problems exist, she’ll recommend appropriate measures to stabilize your bite. These may include wearing a custom bite splint (orthotic) or placing crowns on the affected teeth.

With modern techniques and technologies of neuromuscular dentistry, Dr. Barbat can help you achieve a healthier bite with more comfortable muscles and jaw joints. Click Here for a no-cost consultation.
